Newbie and Pumped!!
Hey guys!! Just stumbled upon the site. Let me give a brief summary of me and my ride. I am 35 years old and have had my 1970 stepside k10 4X since I was 15. It is my 1st vehicle, so as you may know it has a lot of meaning to me. I got it was stock height, tired as hell, but solid.
I will keep this real short, I made many changes the 1st 10 years, I redid it myself twice, learning more and more each time. She now rides on a 4" suspension lift, 35o with th350 tranny, 100% solid body, no bondo, bed is awesome! All new wood, stainless rails, chome steps, interior, 35" bfg mud, american eagle aluminum wheels... on and on. My next steps: New 350 (waiting to go in!) Rebuilt tranny Complete electrical (mine is a mess) cowl hood, (another) Paint job, but this time by a professional. I did okay, but I am no pro. I have to say it is a nice truck, not a show truck, but nice. I get thumbs up everytime she rolls out. Another 5K or so and she will be much nicer. It will be done by next summer. I have already started buying stuff. I do not have many pics here at work, but will load some soon. Hope to meet plenty of friends here! I have already been looking at all the other rides and man can I say there are some sweet trucks here!!!
